How to Start Writing on Substack in 2023 (Beginners Guide)
I wish I knew more at the beginning of my Substack journey, so I created this "Substack for Beginners" series for you
More and more creators and writers are joining Substack.
Why?
Because Substack is way more than just ‘a newsletter platform’.
I think of Substack less as ‘a platform’ (such as Medium, X, or YouTube) and more as a ‘personal book club’.
Imagine hosting a cozy gathering, where every attendee hangs onto your every word. That’s Substack.
Sit, read, and engage in intimate conversations.
Since Substack is changing a lot, there are so many awesome (underutilized) tools to discover.
Within the last past weeks, I received a lot of questions about how to start on Substack.
That’s why I decided to start a series where I demystify Substack and show beginners how to take action in this last quarter to finally start their exciting Substack journey.
In addition, I share proven tips and tricks to get seen, read, and paid.
This week’s YouTube tutorial is about starting a newsletter/publication on Substack:
In the first part of my “Substack for Beginners” series, I show you how to set up / start your Substack publication and what to call your baby.
